Yeah a re-skin of Link would be pointless.

I'm glad they went this route - cant wait to see more of the gameplay.

I like this new concept for her, and I have confidence in their ability to make it feel engaging throughout the whole game.

But to play devil's advocate, they could make Zelda weild a sword without playing too similarly to Link.
And aestetically, the times she has held a sword, I think it looked good on her, so I wouldn't mind either way.

Having said that, the combat aspect of Zelda games have become less than secondary for me, as I'm much more interested in the exploration of secrets, followed by the puzzles.
So the fact that they are sort of incorporating aspects of puzzle solving into combat here is very interesting to me.
